TUNGKOL SA EPISODE NA ITO
Welcome back, queen—I’m Daniel Nardicio, and this episode of Trigger Warning is exactly why the podcast probably needs a disclaimer (and a margarita).
Adam and I kick things off by unpacking our impending Mexico misadventures—from nude beaches and tequila brands to gym delusions and packing nightmares—before we’re joined by Pulitzer Prize– and Tony Award–winning playwright Doug Wright. Casual flex.
Doug drops in to talk about the beautiful madness of a life in theater: surviving critics, reviving Broadway classics (yes, Damn Yankees), navigating film projects, and why haunted houses and horror movies still hit a nerve. We also spiral—naturally—into modern media overload, John Candy vs. Sean Penn, Alaskan fishing, pet peeves, and the existential joy of living and working in Mexico.
Expect unfiltered opinions, irreverent banter, and just enough enlightenment to justify the offense. If you love nightlife culture, Broadway gossip, creative chaos, and conversations that absolutely do not play it safe—this one’s for you.
🔥 Listener discretion advised. Curiosity encouraged.
